\nbecause the telescope\u2019s too short
\nor the questions lack the depth
\n& the numbers shift the sum.
\nIt\u2019s not a closed universe,
\nthe thread rejects its spool;
\nthis locale is hypothetical
\nwith instants intermultiple.<\/p>\n
\nbecause the contents stay in flux
\nor the color calls the sky
\n& the sky is undefined.
\nIt\u2019s not a finite chronicle,
\nthe strand transcends an open key;
\nthis proximity is undeterred
\nby antecedents or cartwheels.<\/p>\n
\napertures chronologized by aliquots;
\nperhaps a map, scaled mote to mote,*
\nwould communicate this aggregate.
\nDiminution as well as augmentation
\ncorrespond to pitched revisions
\nyet clarity of expatiation
\nmight require lifetimes unattained.<\/p>\n
\nbecause the contents intermultiply
\nor the colors hypothesize the sum
\n& the sum transcends the undefined.
\nIt\u2019s not a closed proximity,
\nthe questions might require flux;
\nthis strand is scaled to aliquots
\nwith instants undeterred by maps.<\/p>\n
